Description

  The present invention relates to a decorative article in which a jewelry member swings freely.

  Many of the ornaments such as earrings, brooches, and necklaces are shaped using materials that tend to cause gloss such as precious metals. And these ornaments are made by polishing their surfaces and giving them complex shapes, etc. to make jewelry members so that the viewer can feel gloss and shine. The device has been devised to enhance the decoration and aesthetics. Now, as a contrivance to further enhance the decorativeness and aesthetics of the decorative jewelry member, the decorative jewelry member is made by combining a precious metal or other material that easily causes gloss with a gemstone. The jewelry used here, regardless of whether it is natural or artificial, generally has a well-polished surface, which can make the viewer feel strongly glossy and shiny, Furthermore, depending on the material, complicated cuts are made to make the surface multifaceted, so not only the light is reflected on the surface, but also the light incident on the inside is complicatedly refracted and diffusely reflected. It can be known to sparkle. With such a device, it is used to create a decorative and beautiful appearance as a decorative item, such as making the viewer feel not only superficial luster and shine but also deep sparkle. .

  However, the above-described decorative article has conventionally had a structure in which a jewelry member is fixed on the decorative article. Therefore, when viewing from the same place, the change is scarce, the angle of light incident on the ornamental jewelry member changes, the person wearing the ornament moves, or the person viewing the ornament Unless the standing position is changed, the direction of the light reflected from the jewelry member of the ornament is difficult to change. Therefore, when such movements and changes are scarce, a person viewing the ornament can feel the luster and shine in the ornament, but not enough to feel the sparkle, as desired. Beauty was not always brought out and exhibited. In addition, it is difficult to avoid the situation in which the decorative value and the aesthetic appearance of the decorative product are not fully utilized and have been damaged, and the apparent value is reduced.

  Therefore, various attempts have been made to make the jewelery member in the decorative part a movable structure in order to fully exhibit the decorativeness and aesthetics of the decorative article and fully extract its value. .

  For example, in an accessory, at least one interlaced part of a hanging ring attached to a vibrating body having a hanging ring or a jewelry member supported by a human body via support means such as a plurality of legs or chains is formed in a cross-sectional plate shape. In addition, there has been proposed a vibrating ornament having a shape in which a portion of the plate-like portion that is in linking contact with the mating side is pointed in a convex arc shape in cross section (see Patent Document 1). In this vibration type jewelry, the jewelry member swings due to a slight movement of the human body or a slight breeze by supporting the load of the jewelry member at the interlinkage portion having a cross-sectional plate shape and a convex arc shape in cross-section. By this, it is aimed that the brightness from a jewelry member comes to be exhibited conventionally.

  However, in the jewelry proposed above, it is difficult to obtain a highly accurate product in which the contact portion shape of the interlinkage portion is a line contact, and the surface contact is substantially achieved. Therefore, practically, the contact resistance becomes large, and it cannot be said that it is sufficient to sufficiently repeat the shaking of the jewelry member. For this reason, the frequency of the sparkle that is visible is low and weak, and since the shaking subsides quickly, it is still not enough to demonstrate the decorativeness and beauty of the original jewelry member as desired. Met.

  In addition, in the jewelry, there is proposed an oscillating accessory in which the cross-sectional shape of each inner peripheral portion of the connecting metal fitting and the metal fitting to be connected having an arc shape or an annular shape has a mountain shape with a linear ridgeline. (See Patent Document 2). This is because a line contact state can be obtained by incorporating a structure having a chevron shape with a linear ridgeline into the chain contact part, thereby reducing the contact resistance and increasing the shaking sensitivity of the jewelry member. It is aimed to produce an effect.

  However, in this vibration type jewelry, both the connection and the to-be-connected metal fittings have an arc shape or an annular shape, so that a force that causes a swing exceeding the angular width of the inclined surface is applied to the suspended jewelry member. If added, the part for suspending the jewelry member itself slides forward and backward, leftward or rightward without shaking and slides sideways. Many of the scenes are difficult to shake, such as being restricted and the vibration energy applied being lost and not leading to shaking, and it was not sufficient as a piece of jewelry that can be shaken continuously and stably. In this way, since the frequency of shaking is reduced, the sparkle emitted from the jewelery member is weakened as a whole, and the duration of shaking is shortened. The situation was damaged.

  Further, in the vibration type jewelry of these means, any of the specific directions such as the front-rear direction or the left-right direction may cause a shake, but there is a wrinkle in the way of swing. That is, when the direction of the force applied to the jewelry member is from various directions, some inconveniences are clearly surfaced. That is, since the portion for hanging the jewelry member and the holding part on the decorative body side are linked by surface contact or line contact, when the rotation angle becomes large, friction tends to occur and the jewelry member Constraints that limit movement become apparent. Then, for the person who visually recognizes the jewelry member of the ornament from a direction other than the front of the ornament, it is difficult to see the glitter emitted from the jewelry member. The time until disappearance was shortened. Therefore, even if the jewelery member is designed with the intention of shining omnidirectionally refracting the incident light like diamond cutting, it has great restrictions on movement, so its decorativeness and aesthetics can be improved. It was difficult to recognize from a wide range of directions, and it was still difficult to say that it was possible to bring out the decorativeness and beauty that were originally possessed.

  As another mechanism, in the accessory, the jewelry member is hung with a two-point hanging ring-shaped holder in the center of the ornament at the left and right diagonally, and the ornament body is slightly tilted upward, and the jewelry member vibrates. A vibration type jewelry that is expected to be easy has also been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 3).

  However, since this vibration type jewelry has a structure in which the jewelry member is suspended and supported at two diagonally upper left and right points, the vibration is restricted in the direction of rotation about the left and right latches. As a result, the direction of vibration to be applied is limited, it is difficult to rotate in the left-right direction, it is not possible to rotate in the left-right direction, and the swing of the direction does not continue slightly.

  Furthermore, when the person who visually recognizes the jewelry member is directly facing the jewelry member, the glitter emitted from the jewelry member caused by fine shaking can be visually recognized. However, when looking from the side or from an oblique direction, it is difficult to see the gloss, shine, and glitter emitted from the jewelry member. Was not fully satisfied. For example, in the case of an accessory used for the ears such as earrings and earrings, the swinging member is located on the side of the face, so that the jewelry member tends to be difficult to face from the person located in front of the wearer. It was hard to expect to see enough sparkle.

  As described above, in the decorative article having the movable jewelry member that has been proposed so far, the vibration is easily interrupted, the direction of shaking is directional, and the ease of vibration is limited. It is not a stable structure that can see the gloss, brightness, and sparkle emitted from the jewelery members from various directions enough and long. From the viewpoint of a structure that can be demonstrated even when viewed, it has not yet been fully satisfactory. Therefore, further improvement is desired.

JP 2005-58371 A JP 2009-11535 A Japanese Patent No. 5424435

  The problem to be solved by the present invention is that the jewelery member of the ornament is easily swayed in a free direction, and the swaying of the jewelery member is stable and long-lasting. The object is to provide a decorative product with extremely high decorative performance, in which the visibility of the observer from various directions is improved by repeatedly changing the reflection and refraction directions such as glitter.

  In order to solve the above-described problems of the present invention, the present inventors have made a structure that facilitates the swinging of the jewelry member, and the concave or rail-shaped receiving portion provided on the ornament body has a rod-shaped or needle-shaped swinging portion. The swinging shaft is projected and the lower end of the swinging shaft is brought into contact with the receiving part at the fulcrum to make it swingable. Further, the rigid suspension arm member curved from the upper end of the swinging shaft extends downward. And the jewelry member was suspended and held at the lower part of the suspension arm member, and the structure of the present invention was completed. At the lower end of the swing shaft, there is a fulcrum at the lower end of the swing shaft that comes into contact with the receiving part of the decorative article body. Therefore, the jewelry member suspended downward from the upper end side of the swing shaft also swings.

  Accordingly, the means of the present invention for solving the above-described problems includes a decorative article main body having a receiving portion, a swinging shaft standing on the receiving portion so as to abut the lower end thereof, and the swinging shaft. A decorative suspension arm that protrudes from the upper end of the suspension, and a jewelery member that is suspended from the bottom of the suspension arm, the swinging shaft having the lower end as a fulcrum. A decorative article characterized by being able to freely swing on the receiving part. Specifically, the first means is a decorative article main body provided with the receiving part, and only the lower end part on the receiving part. A decoration having a swinging shaft erected so as to abut, a rigid suspension arm projecting from the upper end of the swinging shaft, and a jewelery member that is suspended below the suspension arm The swinging shaft, the suspension arm part, and the lower part of the suspension arm part are suspended and supported. And a decorative member together, rocking shaft is a decoration, characterized in that can swing freely on the receiving portion and the lower end portion as a fulcrum.

Assuming that the position where the swinging shaft can stand still in the upright state is assumed to be a standing state, each time the swinging shaft is swung with its lower end as a fulcrum, the suspension arm at the upper end of this swinging shaft is assumed. The jewelry member suspended from the part swings in the direction opposite to the tilting direction of the upper end of the swing shaft. That is, when the swing shaft is tilted to the right, the jewelry member moves to the left and is at a slightly higher position as compared to the stationary state. That is, the center of gravity of the member placed on the receiving portion, that is, the “center of gravity of the swinging shaft, the suspension arm portion, and the jewelry member” is slightly obliquely upward as compared to the standing state when the swinging shaft is tilted. Will move. In a stationary state, the center of gravity is the lowest and stable, and when the swing shaft tilts back and forth and left and right, the potential energy increases as the center of gravity moves diagonally upward. Since the hanging jewelry member is close to the center of gravity and tilts in the counter direction opposite to the tilt of the swing shaft, the swing jewelry moves back by a rotational moment with the lower end of the swing shaft as a fulcrum. Therefore, the tilted swing shaft moves toward the stationary state without falling down as it is, but because of the momentum, it tilts in the opposite direction and repeats swinging to return to the original direction. If only the position of the center of gravity is viewed, the center of gravity moves like a pendulum suspended from a fulcrum of the swing shaft.
And since the center of gravity of the entire swinging part (swinging shaft, hanging arm part and jewelry member) is lower than the fulcrum of the bottom end of the swinging shaft abutting on the receiving part, the swinging shaft is in a stationary state. If the angle is slightly tilted, the return operation is repeated toward a more stable stand, and therefore the rocking continues to swing repeatedly for a long time until the momentum is attenuated.

  In the present invention, since the jewelry member of the decorative article swings long, it is difficult to stand still and can continue to swing in various directions, so that observers from multiple directions can see the gloss, sparkle, and glitter that arise from the jewelry member. It can be seen sufficiently and for a long time, and exhibits a very excellent decoration and beauty. Then, in the decorative article having this new structure, the swing shaft is made to stand on the receiving portion of the decorative article body while the lower end portion of the rod-shaped or needle-shaped swing shaft is brought into contact with the fulcrum. The jewelery member is suspended through a suspension arm portion extending from the upper end side, so that the oscillating shaft can be repeatedly oscillated with its lower end as a fulcrum.

  Since the jewelry member is a precious metal with a cut gemstone or decoration and has a certain amount of weight, the swing shaft that hangs these jewelry members through the suspension arm part has a lower end slightly at the receiving part. It is pressed. By being pressed moderately against the receiving portion, the swinging motion is stable, and since it is suspended below the receiving portion, the center of gravity is low, and the swinging operation is easily stabilized accordingly. Further, the suspension arm portion that holds the decorative member so as to hang down is a member for hanging the jewelry member downward from the upper end portion of the swing shaft, and protrudes from the upper end portion of the swing shaft. For example, it is a member made of a noble metal rigid body and integrally formed with the swing shaft. The swing shaft is in a standing state while swinging around the lower end as a fulcrum so that the lower end is in contact with the receiving portion. In other words, the swinging shaft swings in such a way that the upper end is greatly swung with the lower end as a fulcrum side, but does not immediately fall in one direction and tilts in the opposite direction, so that it touches the receiving part. It keeps standing while touching and shaking.

  The second means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem is that the hanging arm part is an arcuate or annular rigid body, and the jewelry member supported by the lower part of the hanging arm part is: Further, the decorative article according to the first means, wherein the decorative article is suspended downward from the receiving portion.

  That is, the suspension arm portion includes, for example, a cantilevered or both-supported arc-shaped arm or an annular arm, and the lower end side of the arm protruding sideways from the upper end of the swing shaft is curved. A jewelery member that extends to the lower part of the swinging shaft and is decorated with a jewelry such as diamond or precious metal is fitted and fixed to the lower end of the arm, and the jewelery member is fixed from the upper end of the swinging shaft through the arm part. Drooped. Then, since the lower end of the arm part goes around to the lower part of the receiving part that comes into contact with the swing shaft provided in the part to be worn on the body, the jewelry member fixed to the lower end of the arm is lower than the receiving part. Will be located.

  Further, if the upper end of the swing shaft is tilted to the right, the center of gravity below the fulcrum moves to the left and obliquely upward together with the jewelry member suspended from the rigid arm. If the upper end of the swing shaft is tilted forward, the center of gravity moves obliquely upward on the back side below the fulcrum. Since the center of gravity always increases slightly while moving in the counter direction, the rotational moment acts in the direction of returning naturally. Therefore, it will continue to swing while going back and forth. In addition, since the arm is an arcuate or annular rigid body and spreads so as to protrude sideways, the center of gravity moves smoothly when swinging, and the jewelery member moves upward and at the same time the arm moves Since it also moves in the lateral direction by bending, it naturally leads to the movement of potential energy. Further, since the arm itself is heavy, if it is swung as much as it curves and protrudes to the side, the momentum increases.

  The third means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is that the receiving part is recessed at the center in a concave shape. The decorative article according to the first means or the second means, It is.

  In the third means, the upper surface of the receiving portion is recessed in a concave shape as a contact portion with the swinging shaft upward, thereby forming a cup shape. Then, if the shape of the lower end of the swinging shaft that is in contact with this is curved into a hemisphere having a smaller curvature than the curvature of the recess, the concave recess of the receiving portion is formed according to the inclination of the swinging shaft. The contact point between the lower end of the rocking shaft and the receiving portion that are in contact with each other moves within the concave receiving portion. As described above, the concave curve and the lower end of the swing shaft are curved and brought into contact with each other, whereby the swing shaft can be smoothly tilted.

  For example, if a rod-like rocking shaft such as a cylinder is in contact with a flat tray, when returning to a stationary position, the plane circle on the bottom of the rocking shaft and the plane of the receiving portion Will come into contact with each other by surface contact. Every time the surface comes in contact, the movement is jerky and stops, so that the swinging operation is difficult to be repeated, and the swing is easily converged immediately. On the other hand, when the lower end of the rocking shaft is hemispherically curved and in contact with the concave curved surface along the concavely curved concave shape as in the means of the present invention, Even at the position, only one point at the lower end of the hemispherical surface touches one point on the concave surface of the saucer, so that the shaking does not converge immediately, but repeatedly moves for a while. Since the swing shaft has a slight thickness, the position where the lower end curve touches the point moves according to the inclination. As a result, the shaking is less likely to stop, and the fulcrum moves, so that it can be stably supported by fitting in a concave shape without being disengaged even in a larger tilted state. In addition, by increasing the depth of the concave depression, it becomes difficult to come off even if it jumps upward, and the fulcrum can move during tilting. It becomes easy to touch. Therefore, even if a slight shake is applied, the swing shaft is difficult to come off from the body mounting portion, and the ornament is a stable swing.

  A fourth means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems is any one of the first to third means characterized in that the lower end of the swing shaft is hemispherically curved. It is a decoration article as described in. The lower end of the swinging shaft makes contact as a fulcrum, but in swinging that reciprocates many times, in a column with a bottom surface such as a cylinder, the bottom surface comes into surface contact when standing still, and then contacts the point. Since it shifts, the swinging operation is likely to stop. Therefore, since the lower end is curved in a hemispherical shape to make point contact, the swinging operation is difficult to stop and is smooth and easy to sustain.

  According to a fifth means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problems, any one of the first to fourth means is characterized in that the lower end of the swing shaft has a conical pointed needle shape. It is a decorative item according to crab. The lower end of the swing shaft is sharpened in a conical shape and enters the recess of the receiving portion to be supported. The contact point is a point contact by a needle-like tip, and it tilts while smoothly moving in the dish of the concave receiving part of the contact part, so that the fulcrum moves on the receiving part according to the inclination. . Due to the depression, even if it vibrates in the vertical direction, it will be difficult to jump up and come off, and even if it is inclined with a large angle, the swinging shaft can be kept in contact with the receiving part without coming off. Further, since the tip of the point-contacted needle can be tilted while moving smoothly in all directions, it can be shaken for a long time while repeating minute vibrations regardless of the direction in which the vibrations are applied.

  The other means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem is that the receiving portion has a groove opened in the upper surface in the longitudinal direction, and is curved so that the longitudinal direction becomes an upper chord arc. The decorative article according to any one of the means of the present invention or the first to fifth means.

  The cross section of the groove may be shallow V-shaped or U-shaped. However, since the groove comes into contact with the lower end of the swing shaft in the groove, even if the swing shaft is greatly inclined due to vibration, it is difficult to come off. In addition, since the groove is curved as a whole, the lower end of the swing shaft naturally flows at the lowest position, so that the groove can be positioned stably.

  Another means of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem is that the receiving portion is a rail having a U-shaped cross section with the opening side as an upper surface, and the rail further forms an upper chord arc in the longitudinal direction. The decorative article according to any one of the means of the present invention or the first to fifth means, characterized in that the rail is a curved rail.

  The present invention has a structure in which a jewelry member that hangs down from the upper end of the swing shaft via the suspension arm portion is supported in a swingable manner by bringing the receiving portion and the lower end into contact with the lower end of the swing shaft as a fulcrum. Therefore, it is important that the lower end of the swing shaft can smoothly contact the receiving portion. Therefore, the receiving portion is a rail that warps upward, and the cross-section is U-shaped with an upward opening. Since it is a U-shaped groove, it is difficult for the lower end of the swing shaft to jump out of the groove, and a stable swing state can be obtained when swinging in the left-right direction across the rail. Furthermore, since the entire rail is curved so as to bend upward, the swinging shaft naturally moves to the lowest position on the inner surface of the rail even when the swinging shaft swings in the longitudinal direction of the rail. It is guided and tries to contact the groove of the receiving part. Since the rail is curved, it is less likely that the rocking shaft slides and moves in the groove every time it is swung, and it is difficult to cause unnecessary attenuation, so that it can swing long.

  The jewelry member of the decorative article of the present invention is suspended from the upper end of the swing shaft via the hanging arm portion, and the swing shaft stands only on the receiving portion with its lower end portion in contact therewith. Therefore, it is very easy to shake and can respond sensitively to the slight vibrations of the surroundings. In particular, since the lower end of the swing shaft that becomes a fulcrum in point contact comes into contact with the receiving portion, it can swing in various directions.

  In addition, the center of gravity of the swinging shaft, hanging arm and hanging jewelry member is lower than the fulcrum of the bottom end of the swinging shaft when standing still, and a stable rotational moment is generated, so the swinging shaft tilts. Even if it does not fall down, it can move back. In other words, when a jewelry member having a three-dimensional weight is suspended, the center of gravity moves obliquely upward, which is opposite to the direction in which the swing shaft tilts, and the center of gravity deviates from the vertical bottom of the fulcrum. Therefore, since it is urged to return to a low center of gravity position when standing still below the fulcrum, the swing of the swing shaft and the direction of the center of gravity movement are reversed at the same time as the natural and stable swing is repeated. For this reason, it does not fall down in the direction of the tilted axis as it is, but it swings repeatedly like a simple vibration. In addition, since the rocking is stably repeated, it can be shaken for a long time.

  Since the swing shaft is merely in contact with the receiving portion at the lower end, the swing shaft can be tilted forward, backward, left and right, and in any direction, and there is no great restriction on the direction of vibration applied. That is, according to the means of the present invention, the jewelry member does not vibrate in a reciprocating motion in one direction, but can repeatedly swing without limitation in the direction following the front-rear and left-right inclinations. There is no particular limitation on the direction of vibration, and it can swing.

  Furthermore, since the ornament of the present invention is a three-dimensional jewelry member, even if it swings in various directions, the center of gravity changes in each swinging direction, so the swinging direction changes according to the direction of vibration. Yes. And when it finally returns to its original stable position due to the applied vibration, it will oscillate repeatedly like a pendulum when the increased potential energy is released, so it will vibrate for a long time and the shimmering direction will be Since it keeps changing minutely, the charm of the jewelery member is maximized. Furthermore, when new different vibrations are applied, the direction and the fluctuation width are changed, and the vibration continues to be complicated.

  Therefore, it is easy to shake and the applied vibrations can be in various directions, so if you wear it, you can shake not only movements such as walking and slight movements of the body such as the face and limbs, but also minute vibrations applied at the breathing level. If worn, vibration will continue to be applied, so it will continue to shake. Then, since the hanging jewelry member repeatedly swings, the direction of reflection and refraction with respect to the light to be inserted is constantly changed in a complicated and varied manner. Therefore, from the surrounding observers, glossy, brilliant, and glitter as decorative effects due to reflection of the jewelery member can be easily seen by changing, and it is easy to shake even with minute shaking, so it is a flickering blink Can be visually recognized sufficiently and for a long time, and the decorativeness and aesthetic appearance can be fully exhibited.

  In addition, the swinging parts are smaller and lighter than the entire ornament, so the swinging period is shortened and the swing is fine, so there is a large slow movement when the entire ornament swings. Compared with, blinking more flickering increases, making it easier to see.

  Furthermore, when the hanging arm unit integral with the swinging shaft is projected downward from the upper end of the swinging shaft as in the second means, the arm is made arcuate or annular, and the hanging jewelry member is below the fulcrum. Since the length from the upper end of the oscillating shaft to the position of the center of gravity when the oscillating shaft, the suspension arm, and the jewelry member stand is increased with respect to the length of the oscillating shaft, it becomes easier to stabilize. . In addition, since the movement distance of the hanging jewelry member becomes larger than the movement of the upper end of the swing shaft, a sufficient change in the manner of refraction and reflection of the jewelry member appears even with a slight angle of inclination. For a long time, it will be clearly visible for a long time. Furthermore, since it is a rigid body, there is no blurring even if it is tilted, so that the jewelry member that moves in the direction opposite to the tilt of the swing shaft moves smoothly without bending. In addition, since the arm is an arcuate or annular rigid body and spreads so as to protrude sideways, the center of gravity moves smoothly when swinging, and the jewelery member moves upward and at the same time the arm moves Since it also moves in the lateral direction due to the bending, it is easy to obtain a movement in which the potential energy fluctuates, and if it fluctuates, the momentum increases.

  Further, according to other means, the receiving part is formed long in the longitudinal direction, and the swinging shaft hardly protrudes from the groove and can be stably and repeatedly swung. Further, since the rail in the longitudinal direction is curved upward, the swing of the swing shaft is not easily attenuated. That is, even when vibration that tilts greatly in the longitudinal direction is applied, the lower end of the swing shaft slides on the rail groove, and the lower end of the swing shaft is the lowest immediately after sliding back on the curved groove in the groove. Because it is guided to the position, the lower end of the rocking shaft does not slide repeatedly on the rail of the groove many times, so that even if it shakes in the longitudinal direction, the vibration will be greatly attenuated immediately. Can be avoided. Therefore, long and stable rocking can be obtained without any particular limitation on the tilting direction. In other means, since the cross section is U-shaped in particular, even when it swings across the groove, it can smoothly come into contact with the lower end of the swing shaft, so that it can swing stably for a longer time.

  Further, in the third means, since the receiving part has a concave shape with a concavely curved cross section, the lower end of the swing shaft is difficult to come off from the receiving part during tilting, and Since the tilt is changed while moving smoothly on the part, the movement is smooth. Therefore, the shaking is difficult to converge, and can be repeatedly shaken for a long time.

  Further, in the fourth means, the point contact point of the lower end of the swing shaft moves according to the inclination, so that the point contact can be maintained. When combined with other means, since the lower end of the swing shaft is curved, it smoothly tilts on the receiving portion of the cross-section arc, so that it is difficult to attenuate and the swing can be maintained for a long time.

  Further, in the fifth means, since the lower end of the swing shaft is pointed conically, it becomes a point contact, so that the fulcrum can be smoothly tilted on the receiving portion according to the tilt. You can continue to shake. Further, when combined with other means, it is difficult to come off due to the recess having a circular arc cross section of the receiving portion, and the rocking shaft can be kept in contact with the receiving portion without coming off even with a large angle of inclination. Further, since the tip of the point-contacted needle can be tilted while smoothly moving in all directions, the needle can be swung long while repeating minute vibrations regardless of the direction in which the vibrations are applied.

  Embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings as appropriate. In the following description of the present invention, a pendant top provided with a necklace will be described as an example of the decorative article body (11). Of course, the present invention is not limited to a necklace, and the present invention provides a pierced earring as long as the ornament main body has a receiving portion that comes into contact with the lower end of the swinging shaft, and the jewelery member is supported by the hanging arm portion via the swinging shaft. , Earrings, ear cuffs, necklaces, brooches, rings, cuffs, tie pins. Furthermore, it can be applied to a decorative wristwatch.

  First, the swinging shaft (12), the hanging arm (16) protruding from the swinging shaft upper end (13), the jewelry member (17) suspended below the hanging arm, and the hanging support for the jewelry member The base (18) of the jewelery member for performing the above movement is integrally swung around the rocking shaft lower end (14) as a fulcrum. Collectively, they will be called “oscillating parts”.

  As the swing shaft (12) and the suspension arm portion (16) of the present invention, those having rigidity by using, for example, an integral member made of a precious metal are suitable, and the jewelry member (17 It is preferable that the base (18) or the like of the support part that hangs down is formed integrally with the lower end of the suspension arm portion. As the noble metal, gold, silver, platinum group metal, or an alloy containing them as a main component is suitable. However, the surface coating treatment may be performed by using other metals, or by plating or vapor-depositing them with the noble metal. May be. In addition, the present invention can be applied to those formed integrally with a hard plastic resin, and those subjected to surface coating treatment with a noble metal. The base (18) for fixing the swing shaft (12), the suspension arm portion (16), and the jewelry member (17) is obtained by casting the same material into a mold and integrally molding it. In addition to being able to be prepared, each part may be joined by welding or adhesion and integrated into a swing part.

  In addition, the base (18) for supporting the jewelry member (17) provided at the lower end of the suspension arm (16) is, for example, a standup claw (from the base (18) when supporting a diamond. 19) is protruded so that the jewelry member (17) such as a jewel can be held, whereby the diamond can be appropriately fixed and supported on the base (18). Of course, as long as the jewelry member (17) can be supported and fixed to the lower end of the suspension arm part (16), the specific shape of the base (18) and the method of fixing the jewelry member (17) do not matter. For example, the jewelry member (17) may be detachable / replaceable from the base (18).

  The hanging jewelry member (17) is preferably capable of reflecting and refracting incident light from the light source by being finely shaken, and examples include well-polished decorative precious metals and gemstones and imitations thereof. As a gemstone, diamond with high reflection and refraction is suitable, but other gemstones may be used, such as quartz, quartz, pyroxene, feldspar, emerald, ruby, sapphire, garnet, aquamarine, amethyst, cat's eye, tourmaline, Widely applicable to apatite, opal, wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles, etc., transparent or opaque. In particular, a surface processed with a complicated cut on the surface is suitable because it blinks neatly due to reflection and refraction. The noble metals are gold, silver, platinum group metals, and alloys thereof, and those subjected to surface coating treatment with these noble metals can also be used.

  The receiving portion (15) is a portion that contacts the lower end (14) of the swing shaft with the upper plane. For example, as shown in FIG. 11) is provided with a horizontal bar (23) and a part of the upper surface of the bar body is formed into a concave part or a hemispherical concave part as a receiving part (15), or FIG. 2 and FIG. As shown in Fig. 4, the decorative body (11) has a U-shaped groove (24) whose upper surface is an open surface, or a rail-shaped part having a V-shaped groove in the longitudinal direction as a receiving part (15). You can. When the open rail (25) of the groove (24) of the receiving portion (15) is bent so as to form an upper chord arc, the contact portion of the swing shaft lower end (14) is a naturally curved groove ( 24) is guided to the lowest part of 24), so that the rail-shaped part receiving part (15) also has the groove (24) when the swing shaft (12) tilts in the groove direction of the rail (25). Thus, the side slip phenomenon in which the lower end (14) of the rocking shaft is greatly moved is reduced. Therefore, the attenuation of shaking is suppressed. When such a rail-shaped groove is used, the manufacturing process can be simplified as compared with the case where the receiving portion is provided in a part of the rod body, and thus the manufacturing is facilitated. For example, if a concave mortar serving as a receiving part (15) is cut into a thin rod with a diameter of 1 mm or less with a drill or the like, the work tends to be uneven and troublesome due to the indexing and accuracy of the center. If a rail-shaped part having a U-shaped groove (24) in the longitudinal direction is created, it is not so difficult, and the rail (25) can be bent and warped slightly without difficulty. Further, it may be accurately produced using a mold with a vacuum casting machine or the like.

  In addition to the thin cylindrical shape, the swing shaft (12) may be a conical needle with a pointed lower end as shown in FIGS. Since contact with the receiving portion (15) is preferably point contact, the lower end (14) of the swing shaft (12) has a conical shape with the swing shaft (12) downward so that the tip shape is needle-shaped. It is preferable that the lower end (14) is curved in a hemispherical shape as shown in FIGS.

Now, the jewelery member (17) suspended from the lower end of the suspension arm portion (16) has a large change in the weight of the jewelery member (17) depending on its design and the size of the jewelry to be gripped. The overall center of gravity position varies depending on the size and weight of the suspended member. Generally, the more the center of gravity of the swing part is located at a position lower than the fulcrum height of the swing shaft lower end (14), the more easily the swing is stabilized. Therefore, the length of the swing shaft (12), the length of the suspension arm (16), the position of the hanging jewelry member (17), etc. are determined by the fulcrum height of the swing shaft lower end (14) and the swing parts. If the adjustment is performed in view of the position of the center of gravity, stable rocking can be obtained. At least, the center of gravity of the swinging part should not be higher than the fulcrum height of the swinging shaft lower end (14) in a standing state.
(About shaking)

  Now, the tilted swing shaft (12) finally returns to the position of the stationary state shown in FIG. 5B or the solid line in FIG. 6, but the contact point with the receiving portion (15) is a fulcrum. It is easy to shake very sensitively. Therefore, the movement continues to swing while repeating the swinging until the shaking converges. In other words, once the shaking is applied, the rocking is repeated until the stable stationary state is reached. This is because, if the inclination is a small angle, it swings repeatedly like a single vibration pendulum motion. The jewelry member (17) is much longer and continuously rocked compared to a conventional ornament using a vibrating jewelry member.

  Then, even if the wearer swings to repeat the normal breathing motion or a slight change in posture, a new swing is added. Therefore, it does not converge completely and does not stand still, and the slight swinging is repeated as long as the ornament of the present invention is worn. Then, the reflected light and refracted light generated by cutting the jewels flicker finely like flickers, creating a variety of sparkles, and the beauty is easily caught by the surrounding eyes. This is because the true value of the jewel glittering is easily demonstrated by flickering. Thus, the decorative article of the present invention has a high decorative performance.

  In addition, the jewelry member (17) suspended from the arm-shaped suspension member (16) swings according to the direction of the applied swing, so that the direction of change of the center of gravity swings in various directions, front, back, left and right. Because the direction of the center of gravity changes greatly along with shaking, the direction of swinging is not limited to simple left and right movements, but can be extremely complicated. Moreover, even if the inclination from the rocking axis (12) at the time of standing still remains at a small angle of about 10 degrees, for example, a sufficient change can be obtained in the reflection of the jewelry member (17) with respect to the incident light. Therefore, it is possible to shine sufficiently even in an inclination capable of stable operation.

  Now, since there is a large mass difference in the weight of the ornamental body (11) and the swinging parts such as the jewelry member, the swinging of the swinging part is different from the swinging of the decorative body (11) itself. It becomes a cycle. When the ornament main body (11) is heavy, the ornament main body (11) does not shake and only the swinging part side can continue to shake finely. In particular, the decorative article body (11) is often worn so as to come into contact with the body. For example, in the case of a necklace, the ornamental body (11) of the pendant top is worn so as to be in contact with the chest. Then, since the ornamental body (11) does not finely vibrate finely and is placed still along the chest, the swinging part swinging around the swinging shaft lower end (14) is It can continue to vibrate for a long time without being attenuated by reaction or the like due to shaking of other parts. In addition, unlike a large-sized decorative article body (11) that swings largely and slowly as a whole, a swinging part with a small mass swings with the lower end of a short swinging shaft as a fulcrum, so the distance between the fulcrum and the center of gravity is Since the distance between the fulcrum and the center of gravity when the decorative article body (11) is shaken is small, the vibration period of the shake is much smaller for the swinging part. Therefore, as compared with the case where the decorative article body (11) as a whole is shaken, the swinging part can repeatedly obtain a lot of flickering and blinking, so that a very visual effect is easily obtained. Although the cycle varies depending on the mass of the swinging part, it is possible to obtain a minute swing having a cycle of about 3 times per second. In the case of diamond or the like, generally, the larger and larger the diamond, the easier it is to shine, but according to the present invention, even a small diamond shakes very finely. It is easy to see the repeated flickering blinks, increasing the value of the diamond and bringing out its sparkling properties.

  Further, when the U-shaped groove (24) of the rail (25) curved so as to form an upper chord is used as the receiving portion (15), the lower end (14) of the swing shaft is in contact with the lowest portion of the groove (24). In addition, when the rail is swung so as to be inclined rather than swinging in a direction orthogonal to the rail, the lower end of the swing shaft is in contact with the inclined surface in the U-shaped groove as shown in FIG. If the movement is in contact, the upper end (13) of the swing shaft does not move in a single vibration but behaves in a three-dimensional manner such as drawing a figure 8. Then, the hanging jewelry member not only swings back and forth, but also swings while twisting in the left and right direction, so that a flickering reflection change occurs greatly, and the visibility of the change increases.

  In the following, an example is shown in which an 18-gold alloy is used for the pendant top of the decorative article body (11) of the present invention and the precious metal of the swing part, and diamond is used for the jewelry member (17) to be suspended. Of course, the precious metal can be replaced with another alloy, such as platinum 950, as well as with gems other than diamond.

[Example 1]
The ornament shown in FIG. 1 is a necklace having a pendant top. The ornament main body (11) is a pendant top having an outer diameter of 11 mm and a weight of about 1.1 g, and a hanging hole (21) through which a necklace passes is opened at the upper end of a frame made of 18 gold alloy. The necklace (20) of the same color made of 18 gold alloy is worn on the body by passing it through the suspension hole (21). In Example 1, the ornamental body (11) itself is also highly decorative as a pendant top, and as shown in FIG. 1, the appearance is like a bag with a hollow (22) in the center. In addition, a goldsmith pattern is applied, and three small diamonds of less than 1 mm are arranged around the periphery as decorations. In the vicinity of the upper end of the central cavity (22) of the ornament main body (11), a rail (25) having a length of about 5 mm curved to the upper chord is arranged as shown in FIGS. The upper surface of the rail is formed with a groove (24) in the longitudinal direction, and this groove (24) forms a receiving portion (15) as a whole. In the groove (24) of the receiving part (15), a swinging shaft (12) having a length of 2 mm stands freely swinging while contacting the lower end (14) thereof, and left and right from the upper end (13) of the swinging shaft. The suspension arm portion (16) curved in both ends extends downward and reaches the upper space of the central cavity (22) across the rail (25). A base (18) is provided at the lower part of the suspension arm (16). In this embodiment, the base is a large base. On the base (18), with a top surface facing sideways, 0.1 carat round brilliant cut diamond is fitted as a jewelery member (17), and the stand (18) nail By being fixed by (19), it hangs down below the suspension arm portion (16).

  As shown by the arrows in FIG. 3, the swing shaft (12) can swing without restriction in the front-rear and left-right directions. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, when the top surface of the diamond of the jewelry member (17) is set in front with respect to FIG. , (C). In this figure, the swinging shaft (12) and the upper part of the suspension arm portion (16) are drawn so as to overlap each other, and therefore, in the drawing, the swinging shaft is hidden by the suspension arm portion (16). In the drawing, the lower end of the swing shaft (14) serving as the fulcrum of the swing part is in contact with the bottom of the cup-shaped curved receiving portion (15). FIG. 6 shows a state where the swing shaft (12) tilts in the left-right direction and the swing part swings in the left-right direction with the swing shaft lower end (14) as a fulcrum.

  However, like the rocking shaft shown in FIG. 7, the rocking shaft lower end (14) can move in the receiving portion (15) curved in a cup shape. When the shaking is intense, the fulcrum can move on the inclined surface of the receiving portion (15) as shown in FIG. 7, so that even if the tilt angle becomes large, the fulcrum can smoothly oscillate. Can be prevented from coming off from the receiving part. Since the movement as shown in FIG. 7 is a mechanism for dealing with intense movement, when the momentum is reduced, the swing shaft tilts as shown in FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 and the fine swing is repeated. .

  In addition, the decorative article of the present invention shown in the first embodiment is one in which the swinging part and the hanging jewelry member are not limited to reciprocating vibrations restricted in one direction, but can swing in multiple directions in the front-rear and left-right directions. It is. When the rail (25) is shaken in a direction oblique to the rail as viewed from above, the way of shaking becomes three-dimensional, and the rail (25) can be moved in a complicated manner so as to draw an 8-character. Even if the strength of the applied force changes or the direction of the applied force changes, the swing width is not so large, so the lower end of the swing shaft is used as a fulcrum, and it repeats finely with a substantially constant swing cycle. Can continue to swing. Note that the center of gravity of the swing part of the embodiment is located below the fulcrum position of the swing shaft lower end (14).

  In Example 1, diamond is used as the jewelry member (17), but diamond has a high refractive index of 2.42, and total reflection can also be used by polishing the surface with a mirror finish. Therefore, by using a complicated cut such as a 58-hedron brilliant cut, the cut diamond can be flickered finely by reflecting the surface with respect to incident light from various directions. Therefore, it is more complicated to shine by refraction and reflection. In the first embodiment, as described above, the vibration can be continued for about 60 seconds, so that vibration is applied by the wearer newly moving during that time.

  Now, with regard to the appearance of the decorative article of Example 1 shown in FIG. 1 that continues to shake, the pendant top was set on a vertical stand and placed on a table, and the time from when the vibration was applied to when the shake was settled was measured. . Since the diamond sparkles, it was determined that the vibration stopped when the flickering reflections stopped. The vertical stand has a standing wall of about 80 degrees, and the pendant top is held in contact with the standing wall of the stand so that the chest of the human body and the pendant top are in contact with each other. Then, the pendant top, that is, the ornament main body hardly fluctuates, and the diamond of the swinging part continues to swing with a fine cycle.

  Then, when vibration is applied to the table once with the above-mentioned pendant top placed on the stand, in the product of the present invention, the rocking parts are shaken and the diamond of the jewelry member repeatedly blinks, and the diamond blinks. It took about 60 seconds. Although vibration was applied from various directions, in each case, shaking continued for about 45 seconds or more, on average, about 60 seconds.

  As a comparison, a product having a structure described in Patent Document 3 was similarly placed on a table and subjected to vibration. Then, although it vibrated finely, the shaking was settled in about 10 to 20 seconds. In addition, since the direction in which the vibration is likely to be regulated is regulated, the variation in the direction of the vibration greatly depends on the direction in which the vibration is applied.

  Also, in other conventional ornaments, the ornamental jewelry member vibrates freely in the left-right direction, but in the front-rear direction, when a small force is applied, it vibrates relatively freely, but it is large. It has been found that when a force is applied, the jewelery member moves so as to slide without vibrating forward or backward, or does not continue to vibrate. For this reason, from the jewelry member, although the gloss, brightness, and glitter are temporarily generated, the shaking converges relatively quickly.

[Example 2]
As another embodiment of FIG. 8, a concave recess provided on the central upper surface of the horizontal bar (23) provided in the upper part of the cavity (22) of the decorative article body is used as a receiving part (15), and a cone is provided here. The structure which made the front-end | tip of a rocking | fluctuation shaft (12) contact | abutted with the receiving part (15) by making the front-end | tip into a lower end (14). FIG. 9 shows a state in which the swing shaft lower end (14) swings as a fulcrum of the swing part while abutting on the receiving portion (15). FIG. 9A shows a standing state, and FIG. 9B shows a state in which the swing shaft is tilted to the left. In FIG.9 (b), the jewelry member (17) is moving to the opposite side to the rocking | fluctuation shaft upper end (13). That is, in FIG. 9 (b) compared to FIG. 9 (a), when the height of the jewelry member (17) is moved to a slightly higher position and the swing shaft upper end (13) is tilted to the left, On the other hand, it is moving slightly upward to the right. Therefore, the swinging shaft (12) does not tilt as it is, but swings back with the lower end of the swinging shaft (14) as a fulcrum, so that it swings repeatedly.
